The Nightmare Before Christmas

It’s been a while? What’s happened between then and now? Well, Sunday and Monday, Robyn and I were down in Peachtree City offering help to the family of Eric Ulrich, the man murdered by his wife last week, and while we did what we could, I think we made a difference, especially on Monday when I helped them move the big, heavy furniture items out of his house. On Halloween we fought through traffic to get up to Buford so we could see Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas… In 3D!

Jack Skellington, the pumpkin king of Halloween Town, is bored with doing the same thing every year for Halloween. One day he stumbles into Christmas Town, and is so taken with the idea of Christmas that he tries to get the resident bats, ghouls, and goblins of Halloween town to help him put on Christmas instead of Halloween, but alas, they can’t get it quite right.

Hard to believe, but this movie is 13 years old… It’s been at least 11 since I last saw it so this was a welcome revisit to Halloween Town, and I had totally forgot how awesome it really was, add in the bonus of 3D and it’s well worth the price of admission. Now I wonder what other 2D movies they will “3D”, the possibilities are endless…
